While the story focuses on the battles between the protagonists and the student council, did you know that there's also another group called the "Zenshokai"? In this article, we'll explain what the Zenshokai is, who its members are, and what kind of people they are!
Introduction: What's the Story?
Born into an ordinary family, Meari Saotome looked forward to attending a school for the wealthy and wealthy, where children of the financial world gather. Her expectations were high, but her classmate, Shin Aiura, invited her to try gambling. The school's system evaluated students not on academic or athletic performance, but on their gambling ability. Her first attempt at gambling ended in a crushing defeat, but she found hope after meeting Tsuzura Hanatemari, a classmate from her previous school days, and set out on her own path to gambling.
What is the Zenshokai?
The student council at Hyakkaou Private Academy is doing whatever they want through gambling. The Zenshokai is a secret organization formed to take down the student council. While there's a strong image that it was founded by outside students who hate the student council, that's not actually the case.
Mibuomi Aoi
He is a member of the Zensaki-kai and its president. He is actually a member of the student council and serves as an executive officer, demonstrating his skills by contributing to Momobami Kirari's election as student council president. However, he also plots to destroy the student council, and in order to destroy the student council system, he created the Zensaki-kai and serves as its president. It's quite a shocking development, with a leader of a hostile force emerging from within his own ranks. She has a carefree personality and can sometimes come across as frivolous, but she's also extremely intelligent, able to quickly spot cheating when gambling.
Kurume Kurumi
A second-year member, she is Meari Saotome's classmate in the game Pairing Party. She has a gyaru-like appearance and often behaves in a gyaru-like manner. She has a butterfly tattoo on her chest. She has no particular reason for attending the Pairing Party, and she professes that she wasn't looking for a boyfriend or money. When she was about to face Juraku Sachiko in a gambling match, she lent Meari 5 million yen, as she was desperate for funds. She lent the money out of personal feelings, not to receive any reward in return for joining the Zensaki-kai. Furthermore, in exchange for extending the repayment deadline, she asked Meari to join the Literature Club.
Shimotsukiuri Ouri
She is a first-year student and a member of the library committee. Having entered school as a scholarship student, he has excellent grades and an incredible memory, with the ability to remember anything he sees exactly as it is, known as "eidetic memory." He remembers every word of every book or textbook he has read, and has even accomplished the amazing feat of memorizing the entire text of the Japanese Constitution. Invited by Mibuomi Aoi, he became a member of Zensaki-kai. He agrees with Mibuomi's ideas, including the society's philosophy. On the other hand, he considers those who oppose Mibuomi's ideas to be evil, and views Saotome Mary, who refused to let him join, as an enemy.
Ougatou Naoko and Houko
These twin sisters, older sister Naoko and younger sister Houko, are both members of the Zensaki-kai. They play in the softball club, using the clubroom as a gambling den. They use signs only known to sisters and the sign-stealing skills they acquired through their softball club activities to gamble. The thing the Ougatou sisters bet on when gambling isn't money, but their friends, which makes this a much more endearing story than the money aspect. However, the sisters recognize that anyone who gets along with them is someone who puts them first. Their goal is to use such a person to usurp the position of president from Mibuomi.
Rokujo Eneru
A third-year student, she serves as the head of the Photography Club and has a student named Shimizu by her side as her assistant. She wears a mask that obscures her mouth, giving off an indescribably mysterious aura. He seizes the Literature Club on Mibuomi's orders, but he takes a liking to Hanatemari as a subject and proposes a gambling game called "Stolen Yakyuken" for his own purposes. His hobby is taking pictures of girls' faces, often showing their disgusted expressions, and he has a twisted dream of selling them to boys and becoming a famous photographer.
Kamishimo Nagi
A second-year student, she specializes in clever tactics and cheating, which she frequently uses during gameplay. He has a frivolous demeanor and speech, and generally treats girls with contempt, especially Meari Saotome, with open contempt. He appears to trust Aoi Mibuomi on the surface, but deep down, he believes she only wants to use the Zensaki-kai for her own benefit. Because he doesn't show his true feelings, he's an excellent gambling player, and he frequently uses provocative language to toy with his opponents.
Soutarou Ibuki
A second-year student and the captain of the Kendo Club. He has a sharp face and a serious personality. His family works for a major general contractor. He once fell victim to a livestock accident, but at the time, he didn't rely on his parents because he wanted to improve himself. He is a stoic character with a strong desire to do things on his own. His solid and serious side is also evident in gambling.
Summary of the Zensaki Society
This article explains the Zensaki Society, a group that opposes the Student Council. Unlike the Student Council, which is full of gambling geniuses but cold-hearted characters, the Zensaki Society is made up of a wide variety of characters, including geniuses, serious people, people with biased thinking, and people with twisted hobbies and preferences. The members of the Zensaki Society will be featured in the anime for the first time, so anticipation is building for how they will play roles in the anime and who the voice actors will be! That's all for today. Thank you for reading.
